The Brilliant Concert Performance
at the Theatre Last Evening

The first tones OF Musn's violin at tue
concert last evening told TO the audience
more than volumes of words could have
said The pure, deep strain told the
auditors something OF the treat prepared,
something Of the skill of the performer,
something OF the perfection oil the instru-
ment and everything OF the possibilities
of music. Musin made his first bow to
the sound OF hall dozen clapping hands
a tornado OF applause. His
enthusiasm-his last, with the widest
rapture. The selections of NJ. Musin
were particularly fortunate, each contain
ing something taking, even to the least
cultivated ear, and all exhibiting the
the performers art. The scope OF the
gentieman's playing is wonderful, and is
shown to perfection in the instantaneous
passage from deep sublmity to airy
sweetness. His bowling is not less
skillful than his rapturous lingering,
and the deicacy and precision with
which every tone is uttered is simply
wonderful But Musin is favored
by nature as well as by fortune, and his
handsome figure, graceful bearing and al
together delightfully."- dgnifed presence
add much-yes, very much-to the
pleasure of his audience. And there is
still another light in which this great star
shines with striking brightness, and this
is as a composer. His Caprice de Con-
cert" as performed last evening was one
OF the favorite numbers on the pro-
gramme, and as composer and performer
the great virtuoso received double COM
pliment in the applause this piece re-
ceived. Yesterday Musin was an antici-
pation--to-day, and ever hereafter, he
will be remembered by all who heard
him as the feature of dream OF sweet,
pure and beautiful music.
If there could have been any disap-
pointment in Nine. Trebelli, it was only
from the fact that she, with all her
talent and culture, is obliged to take
second place when on the programme
with Musin. For this reason she did not
receive the attention that must have
been accorded had she appeared alone
but as it was, her reception was one OF
which Patti or Gerster might well be
proud. The appreciation OF her voice was
shown by presents of flowers as well us by
applause, and the lady won much popu-
larity by her gracious ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF
the compliments. Her first selection was
well suited to her voice, but it was not
then that she made her great hit. AS an
encore to her second number the lady
sang that catching little air from Car
men''-"And ii Love-" etc.-with
which many in the audience We're ia
miliar and tn Jre prepared to appre-
ciate. The power OF the lady's voice in
the lower register was best shown in this
selection, and rs whole the piece was Il
gem. Trebelli, however, made her great
est hit in "Sing, Smile, Slumber," that
charming serenade OF Gounods OF which
it seems one could never tire. The flexi-
bility OF the French words adds much to
the beauty OF the piece, and with
Trebelli's perfect accent and Musin's
obligato, the piece was rendered raptur-
Gus.
Steindorlf, the pianist, was good but
was SO far behind the others, that he
came in for only fair portion OF the APP
plausc, His selections showed off his
touch and lingering to advantage and his
Accomplishments were particularly good
The company perform again this after
noon for matinee and will then pro-
coed on their journey to the West
